Abstract
A case of myocardial infarction in a newborn, most probably consecutive to air embolism, is described. The acute episode occurred immediately after the removal of a venous umbilical catheter. The infant survived, without clinical evidence of cardiac impairment 14 months later. However, he developed signs of a spastic cerebral palsy.Entities:
